Viva Lance!

"To the cynics and the sceptics, I'm sorry you cannot believe in miracles. This is a hard sporting event and hard work wins it. Vive le Tour forever."
These were the words of Lance Armstrong on the podium in Paris after winning the Tour de France for a record 7th time. What makes his achievement even more spectacular is that he recovered from cancer to achieve this feat and is an icon and hope to all cancer patients throughout the world.
Here is an interesting link which compares him to many other sporting icons.

It's a pity though not to see a single Indian in the list!
